Members of Alachua County Public Schools’ leadership team have been in communication with the National Weather Service (NWS) -- Jacksonville and the Alachua County Emergency Management team regularly over the past few days regarding the winter storm forecast for our area this week. District staff will meet again with both organizations the afternoon of Tuesday, January 21.

Schools WILL be in session tomorrow, Tuesday the 21st. All extracurricular school-based activities will end at 5 p.m. tomorrow.

A decision on whether or not to close schools on Wednesday, January 22 will be made following tomorrow afternoon’s meetings. A notification will be sent to all families via email, phone and text at 5 p.m. on Tuesday. A notification will also be posted on the district’s social media pages and website (www.sbac.edu) at that time.

Thank you for your patience as the district determines what is the best course of action.
